Have you ever saw the Localization video tutorials from ASP.NET website?

How Do I: Create a Multi-Lingual Site with Localization?

and

How Do I: Localize an ASP.NET AJAX Application?

They are great to get you started...

Answer 2

In short, localization in ASP.NET is fully supported using resource files, e.g. files containing strings, images and other resources for each user interface language. They re named after the culture, for example MyResources.en-US.resx or MyCulture.fr-FR.resx.

The only thing that is a bit tricky is handling LTR and RTL languages and, as far as I know, must be done "manually", via code, or via CSS.

You might want to check some documentation on MSDN.

Answer 3

you can create an http module that is going to read the html from the output stream and translate it,use RegEx and make sure not to translate html tags and JavaScript

Answer 4

there is also the asp.net standard (built-in) way, with resource files, just right click your project and click add items resource file, you must create a resource file for each language like for example: MUI.resx (that s the neutral one), MUI.fr.resx, MUI.es.resx, and you are going to use them in the web pages like this: MUI.keyword , that s if you are going to have one resx per language for all pages, you could also have one resx per language per webform. And the current language is in the System.Threading.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture google it a little bit you will find more, at least now you know what to look for
